If I FTP into the device, the folders are named exactly how I left them, but in media player and Winamp, they appear as aboveIt's driving me f**king nuts, why can't I just see the lovely neet folders I organised on my PC????????
I assumed the device was checking the file names against the freedb, but it does it even if the device is disconnected from the internet!

How did you copy the music to the phone? Using just drag'n'drop copy'n'paste, or did use a particular music management application to do it? And if so which one?

It looks very much like there's some music management software re-arranging the folder structures, as it syncs the music to your phone. If you just copy'n'paste them, you should get what you had on your PC to your phone, with no changes made.

It's the standard Google media player, I thought that winamp would solve the problem, but that made no difference.
Nothing is being sorted or re-arranged in the folder structure, it's almost as if it's creating a playlist.
I use SwiFTP on the device and send the files over my WiFi connection via standard FTP.

It all reminds me of the stupid gallery app which ignores folders and re-arranges all images on the device in some entirely ******ed way that makes no sense.

I'm guessing it's designed to make life easy for people who haven't got a clue what they're doing, but for me it just causes headaches....
